Most small dogs good with kids are not just born that way. If the dog has not been socialized properly than size does not matter in the least. Small dogs being good with kids is not the only thing you must consider. How are the kids with the small dogs or any dog? Any dog, large breed or small can be great or totally untrustworthy.

The real key to how a dog reacts to people, places and things is how the dog was socialized from the beginning.

How kids play with the dog must be considered also. For example the Chihuahua or Papillion are usually great with kids. But they are very small with tiny bones and can be hurt easily. Their fragile structure cannot take the roughhousing the sturdier breeds can. Toddlers lack the understanding of how to hold them properly. This does not make the dogs bad they are just a bad choice for a home with very young children.

They should know how to approach or not approach a strange dog. They must understand when it comes to  other  animals not all will be friendly and ready to play or be hugged.
